Loretta/Donham Family Members:
On behalf of the WHS Mens Breakfast Club, and our Class of 62 Family: Our hearts are Saddened, with the Loss of our Good Friend, Everett...He will be sorely missed, and remembered, by ALL of us...He really enjoyed the Fellowship, old cars, and High School Stories, at our Breakfast Meetings....Also, think he enjoyed the time, we got to spend with You/Him, at our 50th High School Reunion...
I'm so Thankful that I got to visit with Him/You, just before Thanksgiving, and will keep that Memory, Forever...Thought the Service was Very Special, and fitting for a Very Special Person..The music was particularly moving for Me, as I enjoy all types of music, especially Vince Gill, is one of my favorites...Sorry, I wasn't able to attend the graveside service, I have an infected tooth, and wasn't feeling very well...I will visit Him, when, I get this resolved, and under control...In the meantime, please don't hesitate to call on me, if I can be of help to You, in dealing with the Loss of Everett, my Friend?
Kindest Regards,
Max & Perrine Patrick
